Abstract

Disclosed are a method whereby user equipment receives a data signal in a wireless communication system, and devices which support same. According to one embodiment applicable to the present disclosure, on the basis of (i) configuration information related to dynamic bundling for a precoding resource block (PRB) and (ii) control information for scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH), both pieces of information being received from a base station, user equipment can receive a data signal via the first PDSCH on the basis of an assumption related to the first PDSCH.

Claims (51)

1. A method for receiving a data signal by a user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication system comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), configuration information related to dynamic bundling for a precoding resource block (PRB);

receiving, from BS, first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);

i) if absence of another PDSCH configured to overlap the first PDSCH in a time domain and a frequency domain is determined based on the configuration information and the first DCI, or ii) if presence of a second PDSCH configured to overlap the first PDSCH in the time domain and the frequency domain is determined based on the configuration information and the first DCI, the UE assumes that the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH in the frequency domain overlap each other in units of PRB groups (PRGs) each having the same size; and

receiving the data signal through the first PDSCH based on the assumption.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving the data signal through the first PDSCH based on the UE assumption includes:

receiving the data signal through the first PDSCH based on interference channel estimation based on the assumption.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the configuration information includes any one of:

first bundling size configuration information for indicating that the dynamic bundling has the size of 2 PRBs;

second bundling size configuration information for indicating that the dynamic bundling has the size of 4 PRBs; and

third bundling size configuration information for indicating that the dynamic bundling has a size of wideband (WB).

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the second PDSCH is scheduled (i) for the UE, or (ii) for another UE.

5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, from the BS, second DCI for scheduling the second PDSCH; and

receiving, by the UE, the data signal through the second PDSCH based on assumption based on the configuration information and the second DCI.

6. The method according to claim 5 , wherein:

the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH are respectively received from different transmission reception points (TRPs).

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

the UE expects that a size of a resource block group (RBG) for the first PDSCH is equal to or greater than a size of the PRG of the first PDSCH.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein:

based on a resource block group (RBG) size for the first PDSCH, the U) expects candidate values each having the PRG size for the first PDSCH.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein:

based on a resource block group (RBG) size that is equal to 2 and is used for the first PDSCH, the UE expects that candidate values each having the PRG size for the first PDSCH include 2 PRBs, 4 PRBs, and a wideband (WB).

10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein:

based on a resource block group (RBG) size that is equal to or greater than 4 and is used for the first PDSCH, the user equipment (UE) expects that candidate values each having the PRG size for the first PDSCH include 4 PRBs and a wideband (WB).

11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the receiving the data signal by the UE further includes:

transmitting acknowledgement (ACK) information related to the data signal to the base station (BS).

12. A user equipment (UE) configured to receive a data signal in a wireless communication system comprising:

at least one transmitter;

at least one receiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

receiving, from a base station (BS), configuration information related to dynamic bundling for a precoding resource block (PRB);

receiving, from BS, first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH);

i) if absence of another PDSCH configured to overlap the first PDSCH in a time domain and a frequency domain is determined based on the configuration information and the first DCI, or ii) if presence of a second PDSCH configured to overlap the first PDSCH in the time domain and the frequency domain is determined based on the configuration information and the first DCI, the UE assumes that the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH in the frequency domain overlap each other in units of PRB groups (PRGs) each having the same size; and

receiving the data signal through the first PDSCH based on the assumption.

13. The UE according to claim 12 , wherein:

the UE is configured to communicate with at least one of a mobile terminal, a network, and an autonomous vehicle other than a vehicle provided with the UE.

14. A base station (BS) configured to transmit a data signal in a wireless communication system comprising:

at least one transmitter;

at least one receiver;

at least one processor; and

at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:

transmitting, to a user equipment (UE), configuration information related to dynamic bundling for a precoding resource block (PRB);

i) transmitting first downlink control information (DCI) for scheduling a first physical downlink shared channel (PDSCH) to the UE, and ii) transmitting second DCI for scheduling a second PDSCH to the UE; and

transmitting the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH to the UE,

wherein,

based on the configuration information, the first DCI, and the second DCI,

the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH are configured not to overlap each other in a time domain and a frequency domain, or

if the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH overlap each other in the time domain and the frequency domain, the first PDSCH and the second PDSCH in the frequency domain are configured to overlap each other in units of precoding resource block (PRB) groups (PRGs) having the same size.
